Template:Infobox Toriningen (鳥人間, "Bird human") is a name given to certain characters in Yume Nikki. They have a long pointed snout for a nose that some consider to be beak-like, hence their name. There are three variations, (pigtails, ponytail and bobbed hair), with their respective demented states.
Normal Toriningen will not harass Madotsuki, but those with purple eyes and what appears to be a lolling tongue or blood coming out of their mouth will chase her, teleporting her to an enclosed area if they catch her. The only way to escape from these areas is to use the Medamaude effect or pinching your cheek to wake up. Stabbing a normal Toriningen makes all Toriningen go into this "lunatic" state until Madotsuki is caught or wakes up. One particular odd Toriningen behind a desk at the Mall will change your menu color randomly.
Lunatic Toriningen can be avoided by using the Triangle Kerchief effect and pressing 1, rendering Madotsuki invisible to them unless she interacts with them directly, or by using the Stoplight effect which freezes them in place when the light is red. Toriningen are immortal, and it is possible to stab them one or two times during the transformation phase to no avail. Lunatic Toriningen are immune to the Knife effect, like Uboa. They, along with Uboa, are the only characters considered "enemies" in the game, since they both teleport Madotsuki to a closed-off area.
The player character in NASU has a similar snout. Toriningen can be portrayed as tengu imagery present in Yume Nikki. Even more, a mythical Japanese creature called the Baku or Dream Eater is characterized as having a long snout, and can be seen as a dreamer's antagonist since it obviously eats their dream, although this dream eater is in fact meant to be a tapir-like creature.
Locations
Toriningen are spread diversely throughout the Dream world, appearing in many different locations.
- In the Forest World, heading to the upper right and going between two sculptures transports you to the Face Carpet Plaza where a Lunatic Toriningen is found in it.
- Through a door in the Number World is a room with lots of beds and a normal Toriningen. Entering a part of the wall that is bleeding will take you to the Guillotine Room, which contains three Toriningen but seems to be full of them due to its small size. Stabbing the sane Toriningen in the bed room causes this room to become larger and contain six Toriningen.
- The Toriningen Party is found in a part of Wilderness A. It consists of three normal Toriningen having a picnic.
- The Candle World contains a sane Toriningen that becomes insanely fast when made lunatic.
- Hell contains many Toriningen that, although easily avoided, tend to block the path you wanted to take.
- In a room in the Mall, there is a Lunatic Toriningen behind a desk. She appears to be friendly and cannot harm you. She allows you to switch between the original menu color scheme and two others, the black and red version being somewhat rare.
- The Snow World contains a sane Torinignen near one of the igloos. If you stab her and enter a certain igloo, then she will appear inside!
